I like them Louis but none of them survived our winter last year. The garden centre were flogging loads of them as hardy which was a bit naughty.

@zigs, Did you have any Delosperma planted close to the foundation of a building?

They were mainly in the outside cactus bed Louis, but we did have a girt Hottentot fig by the building (Carpobrotus) which died last December when it went down to minus 8 for a week :confused:

I'll see if I can find a picture of it, will have to look on a memory stick....

This was as dead as a very dead thing the next week. It survives on the coast around the UK but we're up on a hill away from the sea. It's another Mesembryanthemum.
